Artist Unknown
From 1980, this is the British poster for Friday the 13th. It’s a lot different from the American poster. I prefer the British version. It’s more exciting. Sadly, the identity of the artist is not known.

Today is Baseball Fans Day!
I’m a baseball fan so today is my day. I’m still a fan even though my Rangers are currently at the bottom of the ranks. 40-73. I’m still a fan even though we’re not going to anywhere near the World Series this year. I’ll continue to be fan and, every season, I will continue to say that this is going to be the year that we’re going to do it! I love baseball, I love my team, and I love my fellow baseball fans. Even those of you who cheer for the Angels!
Today’s artwork of the day is from 2008. No one captures the excitement of baseball like Graig Kriendler!

This book, which apparently every parent need to read, was first published in 1959 but this edition is from 1964. You can tell that the girl in the blue, polka-dot bikini has truly been corrupted because she’s not only lying in the grass but she’s also smoking a cigarette. That was wild behavior in 1964.

This is from 1953. While the bed needs to be made, it still doesn’t look that untidy to me. The identity of the artist, presumably like that of the murderer, is not known.
This edition is from 1960. Unfortunately, the identity of the artist responsible is not know.
This cover is from 1962. I guess this is the book that revealed that doctors aren’t all chaste priest-kings. The artwork was done by Robert Bonfils. The doctor looks a little confused but it appears that his patient knows exactly what needs to be examined.
